Little Agatha Miller Boehmer daughter of Clara Boehmer and Frederick Miller was the last of three siblings so she was raised with care and care not only from her parents but also from her older siblings.
At the time when families with economic and stable positions like hers were born, they did not subject their children to a specific class schedule, nor to an institution, that was what determined the education of the little girl, who at 5 years of age she already knew how to read, and her father was the teacher who instructed her, so she did not achieve a secular title that will identify her.
The first ten years of her life were beautiful, cared for and protected from her loved ones, she could feel that she lacked nothing, her childhood was characterized by writing fantastic stories with imaginary friends, being one of her most impressive expressions, which assured her family that when she wrote on the sheet of paper she was sometimes accompanied by an angel with wings whom she baptized with the name of Cupid.
